Books are the glass of council to dress ourselves by.
Bulstrode Whitlock
I watch you as you sleep
I think about tomorrow
And pray you'll never go
Somewhere I couldn't follow
Young as we are now
This means nothing to me
'Cause you are nothing to me
And it means nothing to me
That you blew this away
'Cause you could've been number one
Oh girl we are the same
We are young and lost and so afraid
There's no cure for the pain
No shelter from the rain
All our prayers seem to fail
Intro: [Mase]
Yo yo, this Mase, youknowhatI'msayin?
You got niggaz that don't like me for whatever reason
You got niggaz that don't wanna see me rich
You got niggaz that's mad, cause I'm always with they bitch
Sometimes late at night
I lie awake and watch her sleeping
She's lost in peaceful dreams
So I turn out the light and lay there in the dark
And the thought crosses my mind
If I never wake in the morning
Born to lose
I've lived my life in vain
Every dream I dream is only brought me pain
All my life I've always been so blue
Born to lose
And now I'm losing you
I want it cheap, I want it now
I want it fast, and I want it with feeling
I want it deep, I want a vow
I want it to last, and I want it with meaning
I will come and get you in the morning
I'm gettin' sentimental over you
Things you say and do
Just thrill me through and through
I'm gettin' sentimental over you
I thought I was happy
I could live without love
They come, they go
But they don't know
That you are my
Beautiful
I try to come
There is something that I'd like to say to you.
There are people who will try to put us down.
They will tell us we're too young to see it through, girl;
Try to make us cry.
But don't you worry;
You have me, and I have you.
